The phosphate group and deoxyribose makeup the backbone of DNA. As with proteins, the only unit not included in the backbone is the one that provides the information. In proteins it is the R group; in nucleic acids it is the nitrogenous base.
The backbones of DNA are held together by covalent bonds, specifically phosphodiester bonds. These bonds form between the phosphate group of one nucleotide and the sugar group of another nucleotide, creating a strong polymer structure that makes up the backbone of the DNA molecule.
The sugar-phosphate backbones are the double helix staircase railings.
True
DNA consists of two long polymers of simple units called nucleotides, with backbones made of sugars and phosphate.
Bats have backbones which makes it a vertebrate!
A double helix of two strands of DNA linked together with sugar-phosphate backbones with bases on the inside.
The sugar phosphate backbones of DNA are the same in terms of their composition, both containing a sugar (deoxyribose) and a phosphate group. The difference lies in the orientation of the sugar molecules along the backbone, with one strand running in the 5' to 3' direction and the other in the opposite 3' to 5' direction.
Antiparallel
yes they do they have a back bone right so they are vertebrates.
Yes. Most reptiles have backbones, which makes them vertebrates.
All mammals have backbones (Spines). This is part of what makes them mammals.
